Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer

chad_cooper shared a tip "Interesting limited series. Kind of a side note, but the one thing that bothered me while watching this is the egos of the cops... even at the age of senior citizens (and I’m assuming retired) it’s clear these guys can’t help but display their egos (pettiness, self-centered perspective, arrogance, elevated sense of self, immaturity)... it’s pretty sad."

zaira_acosta shared a tip "Wow! This docuseries literally gave me goosebumps and nightmares. Like I really was afraid to be alone. It makes you double take your surrounding and double check your locks and security. I loved researching this case when I was in Law Enforcement class back in HS, so I was like "say less." When the docuseries came out. Well worth the night spent watching the whole series. There are some gruesome graphics and scenes in this so don't watch with kids or if your squemish/sensitive. 5/5 stars, man, AMAZIIIIIING!"

carlye_patterson shared a tip "In my top two for true crime documentaries. Sometimes documentary story telling can be pretty slow, but this one was pretty spooky."

brenna_pitman shared a tip "Fascinated by the psychology of both serial killers and those who’s lives they e/affect. R.R. Is one of those that truly unsettles me."

megan_monroe_3895 shared a tip "I never knew how vicious his crimes were. And the toll the investigation took on the detectives. It was an enlightening crime doc."

cody_kraski shared a tip "As far as true crime documentaries go, this one focuses primarily on the 2 main investigators... I'm used to a narrator with some occasional interviews. This is entirely interview based, and it's awesome. I will say this story and context were heavier than I expected, he was one messed up dude. Not a bad watch!"

itsveganyo shared a tip "Omg ... I remember hearing about the Night Stalker growing up but I had no idea about the full story! Super crazy. Worth the watch if you like True Crime Documentaries."

loren_holmes shared a tip "I LOVED this show. I binged it in 3 days. I love true crime and this is a case that we were talking about in school at the time."

abbs1202 shared a tip "This is eerie. The producers hold his picture for the audience to view a little longer than it should be, making it feel very uncomfortable as you look at it."

Avariiice shared a tip "Absolutely. If you’re into true crime then this is like a must watch. It is a little more on the graphic side so if you’re easily triggered then I wouldn’t recommend"

susie_l_7971 shared a tip "I was a kid when this guy was terrorizing my city. He had everyone truly frightened. Even so, there’s a lot I didn’t know that this documentary brought to light. A fascinating look at a real life monster. #documentary"

moviebuff420 shared a tip "This **** is absolutely insane. Guy is one of the creepiest individuals ever. I can't imagine being in California at the time and living through it"

jennifer_strehle shared a tip "Wildly exciting! Totally binge worthy, because it’s too intense and intriguing from beginning to end. Excellent real life accounts. #crime #crime_and_criminals #documentary #serial_killers"

athul_george shared a tip "Well done documentary following the detectives tasked with apprehending the Night Stalker. Very suspenseful and unnerving in a good way."

breanna_waldon shared a tip "I enjoyed it…but I love/like anything within this genre. I liked how they went into the case. I found it very gripping and also informative, especially if you like learning about the inner works of their minds."

cisaww shared a tip "If you like documentaries and true crime I don't think this will disappoint. Very interesting, liked to see how the case was solved and the documentary was very detailed in the process behind it."

suzanne_robinson shared a tip "I liked it because I enjoy movies / documentaries about serial killers but I didn’t love it. It was ok but not great. I expected more.#nightstalker"

suzanne_robinson shared a tip "This was just ok. Parts were good, but never great. It was slow. I kept waiting for ...something that never came. I expected much more."

emylee_gussler shared a tip "Growing up in Orange County, Ca during this time, I vividly remember the hunt for the Night Stalker. It is interesting now as an adult to see some of the behind the scenes details from the victim's families and the detectives."

karissa_coito shared a tip "it was a really well put together show about how the experience actually went from different peoples ends. it shows some actual videos from that time while also keeping most of everything a mystery"

yoli_hernandez shared a tip "This was done with such respect for all the families affected by this man .... Now about this man .... There's a moment when the camera zooms in on his face ... His eyes are pitch black NO PUPIL at all !!! Like I paused it his eyes are BLACK!!"

jennifer_3351 shared a tip "I feel like this documentary cannot come with enough warnings on it! I enjoy true crime over movie crime, but this one had me eerily creeped out and closing my blinds. I do feel like they went a little overboard with crime scene details more than any other documentary I’ve seen, but the last episode of the best end I never knew about"

briana_hobbs shared a tip "Amazing docu-series that covers this sick monster’s killing spree. The only thing I didn’t like was that they didn’t mention anything about him staying in the Cecil Hotel."

elise_hart_6363 shared a tip "More details into the investigation from the detectives' point of view rather than the media or psychologists who studied him and the case after the fact. Very informative--they had a lot of new facts about the case and the hunt I didnt know about before"

maldmoo shared a tip "I still have dreams about this dude after watching this. It haunts me. I hadn’t heard of him before watching and the docuseries did a good job of revealing him at the end so you sorta find out when “they did”. Never been so angry and disgusted by somebody in my life. Very well done documentary, I’ve watched it twice now. Super heartbreaking. A classic true crime story worth knowing"

nada_abdel_maksoud shared a tip "I never know when to start with that question lol! One of my all time favourites has to be Criminal Minds. I love crime shows and documentaries, also recently been getting into crime podcasts. What’s yours ?"

madison_rasmussen shared a tip "This series is beautifully filmed and paced. It is set from the perspective of the detectives working on the case, putting the viewer in real time suspense."

joseline_quinz shared a tip "One of the best shows i’ve seen! I love crime shows and anything crime related! This show is absolutely great and it’s binge worthy."

addyson_gilmore_2538 shared a tip "I know a little bit about the night stalker/ Richard Ramirez from American horror story (mostly just the basics) and my own personal research. This docu series goes through the entire case (The hillside strangler all the way to his trial) told from the eyes of the lead detectives. This is absolutely fascinating if you love true crime :)"

shelli_truax shared a tip "I remember people being afraid when this was happening. I also remember when just regular people were the ones to catch him. Beat him up and held him until the police came."

julia_costa_3078 shared a tip "hands down one of the best true crime documentary I have watched. the cinematography is unlike any I’ve seen before and it does so well to keep your attention while presenting all the facts"
